The best photos can be the easiest ones to take

Just because a camera is super-easy to use, doesn't mean your photos only come out "so-so." Try the Nikon Coolpix L620 and see what we mean. Set it for Easy Auto mode, and let the camera adjust to your shooting conditions, so you don't have to worry about learning the ins and outs of f-stops, shutter speeds, and so on.

Shooting a portrait? Face priority autofocus and red-eye correction will keep your subject looking sharp. Trying to capture a moving target? Motion detection recognizes your subject's movement and makes adjustments so photos come out crisp, not blurry. Bright sunlight or evening shadows? The 'L620 can keep your shots clear and colorful even as lighting conditions change. About the only adjustment you have to make is this camera's impressive zoom — up to 14X for close-ups that far surpass most smartphones.

Beyond simple point and shoot

When you're ready to go beyond this camera's automatic functions, there's lots of fun to be had. Shoot a fast action sequence at the blazing speed of 10 frames per second. Or try adding effects like monochrome for black and white photos, or selective color to highlight one portion of your shot. Or edit photos on the 'L620 before you transfer them to your computer, so you don't have to fool with complicated software. Try cropping, softening skin, or even editing your HD movies right on the camera.

Supplied Accessories:

2 "AA" batteries

A Disappointment

I had always wanted to own a Nikon brand camera and ordered this one. It felt a little cheap when I first examined it, but it takes breathtaking photos, really, really beautiful. But ultimately, I returned it and ordered an Olympus. The Nikon accepted only two AA batteries; whenever I would try to shoot video, the camera told me that the batteries were "exhausted." I was never able to take a video with it for that reason. The plastic door which held the batteries and the memory card was difficult to open and close, and I anticipated that at some point, it would break. I returned this camera to Crutchfield.

Pros:Beautiful photographs and the camera has easy-to-use settings.

Cons:Plastic feel, but the main con is that the camera would not shoot video as the camera required too much power apparently; only two AA batteries supplied all the power and they quickly became drained. The cover for the battery and memory card compartment was difficult to open and close and it felt like it could easily break or snap off. It was scary.

detected. A skin softening option can smooth the skin tones in human faces.

Continuous Shooting: You can set the camera to take one picture at a
time or multiple images by selecting one of the following options:

Single: The camera records one picture each time the shutter release button is
pressed.

Continuous H: While the

button is pressed, to a maximum of ten. The images are compared and the sharpest
picture is saved to the internal memory or memory card.

Multi-Shot 16: Each time
the shutter release button is pressed, the camera takes 16 consecutive
"thumbnail" images at a rate of about 30 frames per second, and arranges them
into a single 5M (2560 x 1920) image.

Self-timer: The camera is equipped with a 10 second timer for self-portraits.

Focus Area Selection: You can select between the following
Focus Area Selection methods to determine where the camera focuses:

Target Finding AF:

When the camera detects the main subject, it focuses in that subject.

When the subject is in focus, the focus area matches the size of the
subject.

When the camera detects a person's face, it focuses on it as a priority.

Center: The camera focuses
on the subject in the center of the frame.

Color Options: You can shoot still images with several color
options: Standard color, Vivid color, Black-and-white, Sepia, and Cyanotype.

Macro Mode: Macro mode is used for taking pictures of objects as close
as 0.4". The flash may be unable to light entire subject at distances of less
than 1 feet 8 inches.

Focus Lock: The Focus Lock
feature is used to focus on off-centered subjects in the frame while shooting in
Center AF mode.

AF-Assist Illuminator: If lighting is poor, the AF-assist illuminator
may light to assist the focus operation when the shutter-release button is
pressed halfway. The illuminator has a range of about 6' 6" at the maximum
wide-angle position and 3' 7" at the maximum telephoto position. You can turn
this function on or off, as desired.

Blink Warning Function: The Blink Warning function is
available when you are shooting in Easy Auto, Portrait, or Night Portrait mode. When the camera detects
that one or more human subjects may have blinked, the blink warning screen is
displayed. The subject is framed by a yellow border, allowing you to check the
picture and decide whether or not to take another picture.

Exposure
Compensation: You can alter the exposure from the value suggested by the
camera, making pictures brighter or darker. You can adjust the exposure from
-2.0 to +2.0 EV in 1/3 steps.

ISO Settings: Sensitivity is
the measure of how quickly the camera reacts to light. The higher the
sensitivity, the less light needed to make an exposure. The camera features
ISO settings of Auto (ISO 125-1600), 125,
200, 400, 800, 1600, and 3200.

White Balance:
You can set the White Balance to Auto, Daylight, Incandescent, Fluorescent,
Cloudy, or Flash. You can also choose Preset Manual and use a
neutral-colored object as a reference to set the white balance under unusual
lighting conditions.

Built-in Flash: The Coolpix L620 has a built-in Speedlite flash with a range of
1'-8" to 16' (Wide angle) and 3'-4" to 9'-10" (Telephoto). You can choose from the following flash modes:

Auto: Flash fires automatically when lighting is poor.

Auto with Red-eye Reduction: Pre-flash fires before main flash to reduce
red-eye effect.

Flash Off: Flash will not fire, even when lighting is poor.

Fill Flash: Flash will fire whenever a picture is taken.

Slow Sync: Auto flash combined with slow shutter speeds.

In-Camera Red-Eye Fix: If the camera detects red-eye after the pre-flash has fired, advanced
red-eye reduction processing is used to further reduce red-eye, slightly
increasing the time required before the next picture can be taken.

Makes it easy to take great shots

I had an opportunity to take the Coolpix L620 along on an outing, and can tell you from first-hand experience this camera makes it easy to take great photos in just about any conditions. We used the camera for an all-day racing event.

The Coolpix has a large number of Scene options that are easy to change. In the early morning, I used the dusk/dawn setting to take some spectacular shots of the mist rising in the fields. I used the Easy Auto mode to snap pictures of people gathering for the event. The panorama mode let me take in the entire event with one smooth motion  and view it right away.

The sports setting took several pictures in quick succession. Afterwards, it was easy to flip through the folder the camera created and select the one shot that perfectly captured the action. I was also impressed by the zoom, which  when I set the camera for high-resolution images  took in an impressive amount of detail.

Throughout the day I was able to take a wide variety of photos under all kinds of lighting conditions with just this one camera. And afterwards I had an amazing number of great photos to show for it. My friends who used their smartphones to record the event had to admit their images came up short in comparison.
